Why is it that so many of these Ivy League, pasty little wimps so hostile to women? These boys chanting would be the first to run away from a fight. They make me laugh.

This seems to indicate that the intelligence level of some Yale Students, as exhibited by the “Deke’s” choice of initiation chants, is considerably less than we had assumed . . . Idiots!

Since a number of past presidents (Teddy Roosevelt, FDR and Rutherford Hayes as well as other famous people are members of DKE, I am curious as to the reasoning for referencing only the two Bush presidents in the story. Was there any implied connection being made between the Bush presidents and frat idiots sexually harrassing coeds at Yale or was it unintentional?
Just curious.

I don’t defend such crass behavior, but the federal government should not ne involved in this. It is a perfect example of the politicization and federalization of almost everything in this country.
